Honestly mate I’ve read a few comments in here and anyone dismissing it as too hard or far off I’d argue simply isn’t informed about where current AI language models are at and where they are rapidly heading.

The answer to can/will such AI be used to enhance game conversations and the answer is absolutely yes they could even with todays models.

I have no doubt we will see a AAA game using some sort of AI to power NPC interactions within the next couple years.

I don’t think it would be as hard as you think. I’ve seen people roleplay with gpt4, asking it to pretend it’s in ye olde times and to only respond like someone back then would.

With very few prompts it did a good job.

I imagine a AAA game could definitely license some ai and fairly easily tweak it to role play as various characters in their game.

We will never know. It’d be nice to think they would. Apollo-Soyuz happened in the 70’s, and that would have taken a lot of co-operation and co-ordination between US and Russian space agency staff. I imagine most of them could put the politics aside and appreciate each others achievements in the field.

Cool cool…. Doesn’t sound like ominous global conditions at all…

Who gave them the right ? I imagine whichever group of astronomers started it decided on the name.

If you’re wanting to know under what legal authority they demoted Pluto as a planet, it all falls under the jurisdiction of bird law.

No, the speed at which the balloon can inflate, or the universe can expand, is not limited by the speed of light. The speed of light is a speed limit for things moving across that space, not the space itself expanding.

AFAIK that’s not really how it works. For them, they are the centre point at which the universe is expanding from. It’s all relative to your own frame of reference. No solar system is more on the ‘edge’ of the universe than any other.

Please someone correct me if that’s wrong. Space is big and weird.
